Another week of fair to disappointing baseball has led Mark and Evan to seek outside expertise on the Tigers’ woes. To help out, the guys welcome back Tigers radio analyst and former MLB player Bobby L. Scales II to the show. The trio try to make sense of the team’s wildly inconsistent run production. After the break, the show focuses in on the expectations surrounding Riley Greene. What can we learn about Greene’s potential from his walk rate? The trio also discuss Colt Keith’s struggles and if the second baseman is finally starting adjust to the major leagues. Later in the pod, Mark and Evan cover health updates on Javier Báez, Kerry Carpenter, and Jackson Jobe’s upcoming rehab start.
